Sir Isaac Newton
Early Life
Newton was born on January 4,
1643 ( December 25, 1642)

From Woolsthrope-by-Colsterworth,
Lincolnshire, England

Was born prematurely

He was born 3 months after his
father’s death

He was raised by his grandparents

Came from a family of farmers

He was a mathematician ,
astronomer, physicist, & natural
philosopher
Education
From the age of 12-17, Newton
studied at The King's School,
Grantham

At the original school’s building you
can see his signature in the library
window sill

He was removed from school,
moved back with his mother, she
wanted him to become a farmer

He hated farming

Henry Stokes, master of The
King’s School persuaded his mom
to let Newton further his eduaction

Newton became the top ranked
student
-Cont. Education
In June of 1661, he attended
Trinity College, Cambridge, United
Kingdom

He was there as a work study role

He liked reading the more
advanced ideas of modern
astronomers; such as, Galileo,
Kepler, & Copernicus

Received his in degree in August of
1665

Soon after receiving his degree the
university had temporarily closed.

Newton began his home studies at
Private Studies
Moved back to Woolstrope

Did his private studies at home

He did it for 2 years

He saw the development of his
theories of Calculus, Optics, and
the Law of Gravitation
Calculus
Newton started developing
Calculus in 1666, but never got
around to publish in that time

He got in a dispute with Gottfried
Leibniz, (who had also been
working his methods of Calculus)
about who invented Calculus

Newton & Leibniz share the credit
of developing the integral calculus

He demonstrated the binomial
theorem, Newton’s method of
approximating the roots of
constant.
Optics
From 1670-1672 he lectured in
Optics

Investigated the refraction of light

Discovered that light had a
spectrum of colors

He build the first refracting
telescope, instead of using lenses,
he used a curved mirror

He invented the Newtonian
telescope
Newton’s Law of Motion

Newton’s First Law of Motion states - An object at rest tends to stay at rest and
that an object in uniform motion tends to stay in uniform motion unless acted upon
by a net external force

Newton’s Second Law of Motion states - The acceleration produced on a body by
a force is proportional to the magnitude of the force and inversely proportional to
the mass of the object

Newton’s Third Law of Motion states - For every action there is an equal and
opposite reaction
First Law of Motion

            Newton observed Galileo’s Law of
            Inertia

            Newton’s first law of motion states,
            an object at rest tends to stay at
            rest and that an object in uniform
            motion tends to stay in uniform
            motion unless acted upon by a net
            external force
Second Law of Motion
Newton’s Second Law of Motion
states - The acceleration produced
on a body by a force is
proportional to the magnitude of
the force and inversely proportional
to the mass of the object

Ex : The harder you throw a
baseball the faster is will go
because of its mass, so the ball
moves faster because of its size
while if you throw a bowling ball
the hardest you can, it will end up
going very slower due to its size or
mass
Third Law of Motion
           Newton’s Third Law of Motion
           states - For every action there is an
           equal and opposite reaction

           Ex: a car crashed into a tree, the
           tree stops the car’s motion,
           meaning the car gave exert force
           to the tree, the tree gave back
           force to the car.
